Two bills will be voted on shortly. The first bill is the bill the Senate already passed. If the House of Reps passes it, President Obama will sign it into law. Remember this bill does not have to go back to the Senate.

The "fix" bill is the second one that will get voted on tonight. This bill, if passed, will then go back to the Senate. The purpose of this bill is to fix all the issues in the first bill.



10:33 p.m ET-Voting has begun on the first bill, H.R 3590 (Senate Bill)

H.R 3590
219-in favor
